Job Description
Work Activities
This fully funded PhD position lies at the interface between fundamental physics and industrial application. It is part of activities in ARCNL’s Source Department. The research activities of the Source Department aim at an atomic- and molecular-level understanding of the fundamental dynamics in the operation of contemporary and future plasma-based sources of extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) and beyond-EUV light for nanolithography.
In our group’s research we, for example, uncovered the quantum origins of the generated EUV light [Torretti, Nature Comms. Nature Commun. 11, (2020)], found a universal law for expanding plasma [Sheil, Phys. Rev. Lett. 133, (2024)], and found that less than half the initial droplet volume is present on thin tin sheet targets as used in EUV sources [Liu, Phys. Rev. Appl. 20, (2023)], and work on an alternative EUV source solution [Mostafa, Appl. Phys. Lett. 123
